@ Barkingdog: Our Danio's partner did a free willy out of the holding tank years ago. Hubby found it on the floor and thought it was one of our fish fridge magnets that fell of the fridge. When the fish didn't stick to the fridge, hubby realized it wasn't a magnet.

On a sad note, I came home from work tonight and found Danio lifeless. I know he was just a fish but he was part of the morning routine for 13 years. He'll be missed.

The only fish left is an 8 year old Pleco. I've been wanting to dismantle the tank as we're undergoing major home renovations right now and it's been so chaotic. There's an Aquarium store near and will see if they'll take the Pleco only if they have a 25+ gallon tank.

wow 13 I would think that's a pretty long life too!! I had goldfish and the one I had lived to a ripe old age and he was huge. When I was leaving home to go to school, I sold him to a pet store so don't know how old he lived to be.

I called the aquarium store today and the owner said she would take him in. I told her how old he was and that he was about 8 inches long. I also asked if he would go into a tank at least 25 gallons. Her reply was that he would go into her 50 gallon tank, WHEW!

So I'm going to take him up myself to the store just to make sure he's going into a larger home. Kinda sad to him go but at least he'll be able to get bigger in a larger tank.

Other than the Pleco, all my other fur kids are staying put.
